In this paper, we present a network manipulation algorithm based on an alternating minimization scheme from Nesterov (Soft Comput 1–12, 2020). In our context, the alternative process mimics the natural behavior of agents and organizations operating on a network. By selecting starting...

In this paper, we suggest an algorithm for price adjustment towards a partial market equilibrium. Its convergence properties are crucially based on Convex Analysis. Our price adjustment corresponds to a subgradient scheme for minimizing a special nonsmooth convex function. This function is the...
